Hydraulic-Powered Pumps
Reference numbers and letters in parentheses in 
the text refer to numbers and letters in the illustra-
tions.
. 3, page 11, shows a typical installation of an 
hydraulic-powered pump. It is only a guide. Contact 
your Graco distributor for actual system designs.
Be sure all accessories, including hydraulic lines 
and fluid lines, are adequately sized and pres-
sure-rated to meet system requirements.
Use only electrically conductive hoses. Fluid hoses 
must have spring guards on both ends.
Always plug the hydraulic inlets, outlets and lines when 
disconnecting them for any reason to avoid introducing 
dirt and other contaminants into the system.
Be sure that your hydraulic power supply is equipped 
with a suction filter to the hydraulic pump and a system 
return line filter of 10 micron size. Carefully follow the 
manufacturer's recommendations on reservoir and filter 
cleaning and periodic changes of hydraulic fluid.
NOTE: Hydraulic fluid is exhausted from differential 
hydraulic motors only on the upstroke of the operating 
cycle. The oil return line must have at least twice the 
flow capacity as the oil supply line. Otherwise, back 
pressure on the hydraulic motor piston will slow down 
the motor and the fluid displacement pump, resulting in 
a loss of pump performance.
On the hydraulic oil supply line (D), install a shutoff valve 
(E) to isolate the system for servicing; a fluid pressure 
gauge (J) to monitor hydraulic oil pressure to the motor 
and avoid overpressurizing the motor or displacement 
pump; a pressure- and temperature-compensated flow 
control valve (H) to prevent the motor from running too 
fast; a pressure reducing valve (K) with a drain line (M) 
running directly into the hydraulic return line (T); and an 
accumulator (L) to reduce the hammering effect caused 
by the motor reversing direction.
On the hydraulic return line (T), install a shutoff valve (S) 
for isolating the motor for servicing.
NOTICE
The Hydraulic Power Supply must be kept clean at all 
times to avoid damage to the motor and hydraulic 
power supply.
Blow out hydraulic lines with air and flush thoroughly 
before connection to the motor.
Plug hydraulic inlets, outlets, and line ends when dis-
connecting them for any reason.
